I dreamt last night that it was lateish one night and I replied yes to a Syndicate dim sum event that pachooey had organized that was taking place the following morning. I slept. I awoke and realized that I had woken at 11:00 AM—exactly the time the event was scheduled to begin. I knew I couldn't get dressed and down to Chinatown quickly enough to not be embarrassingly late, so I realized that I should immediately cancel and send my regrets. A few moments later I awoke again, and it was just before 6:30 AM on a work day. I was confused for a few moments, first wondering why dim sum had been scheduled on a work day morning, and then realizing that the dim sum event was a dream, and then realizing that the dim sum event was a dream within a dream. To work. Management activities. Calendar management. pcard paperwork. Helped Lucia and James with a question about our Meridian telephones. Sent Shirin a proposed draft of the redesigned prospective students section and talked a bit about voice and tone of writing. Lunch from Panda Express. My fortune: Good fortune lies ahead. ICRD work for Cindy (APEX). Notified Susie about a downed website. Followup with student YN about a legal name change. Listserv management. The downed website is back up now. Designed and coded the 2012-2013 academic calendar in InDesign and for the web. Physical security work. Doctor appointment. Shopped in the Castro a bit. Encountered Ammon C and chatted for a bit.
